PhpStorm 6.0.1 Web Help

When you run the Database console from the Database tool window, a temporary Run/Debug configuration is created. You can save it and use later without reopening the corresponding tool window.

This section provides descriptions of the configuration-specific items, as well as the toolbar and options that are common for all run/debug configurations.

ItemDescription
VM OptionsSpecify the command-line options to be passed to the VM (for example, user.language).

When specifying the options, follow these rules:

  • Use spaces to separate individual options, for example, -client -ea -Xmx1024m.
  • If an option includes spaces, enclose the spaces or the argument that contains the spaces in double quotes, for example, some" "arg or "some arg".
  • If an option includes double quotes (e.g. as part of the argument), escape the double quotes by means of the backslashes, for example, -Dmy.prop=\"quoted_value\".
Use Default ContextIn this field, specify whether you want PhpStorm to execute queries in any context by default. To specify the context provider properties, click the Browse button browseButton.png and select the desired context provider in the Choose Data Source dialog box that opens.
